STALL-FRAME SUPPORT.

70 all whom it may con cern Be it known that I. Roiuiii'r F. Ras- `iit'ssEN, a citizen of the United States, and

resident of shkosh. in the county of Winnebago and State of Wisconsin, have la part of this specification.

The presentfinvention relates to certain new and useful improvements in stall appliances and refers more particularly to a stall frame base or support adapted to be 'set inthe lusual concrete curbing when the same is being poured.

(l'neobject of this invention is to pro Avide a stall frame base or Support adapted to be set in the concrete curbing when the same is poured, and which is capable of ready removal from the curbing aft-er the same, has hardened.

vA further object of this invention is to provide a stall frame base or support of the class described in which the stall frame may be readily secured thereto or detached therefrom. l

A still" further object of this invention is to provide a stall frame base or support so constructed that 4the same may be placed in'- the mold form of a concrete curbing so that the curbing may be poured to conform With'jthe irregularities of' the inner surfaces of the support, and at the same time permit the ready detachment ofthe support from the curbing when the same has hardened.

With the above and other objects in view which will lappear as the description proceeds, `my invention resides in the novel constriiction, combination and arrangement of parte substantially as hereinafter described and more particularly defined by the appended claims,` it being understood thatV suchrhanges in the precise embodiment of the hereindisclosed invention may be made as come within the scope of the claims.

In the accompanying drawin I have illustrated one complete examp` e of the physical embodimentfof my invention, constructedaccording to the best mode I have so far devised for the practical applica- Specification of Ifetters Patent. latenfed Dec. 14 1920.

view being taken on the line 2 2 of Fig. 1.'

Fig. 3 is a top plan view thereof, the stall frame being siown 1n cross section, and

Fig. 4 is a top plan view of a portion of a concrete curbing having my stall frame base or support secured thereto, the stall frame and the means for securing the same t() the support being removed. A

Referring now more particularly tothe accompanying drawing, the numeral 5 lesignates a concrete curbing of theusual construction and adapted to run lengthwise oi a stable at the inner yend of a stall and having means for securing thereto-at certain predetermined intervals the lower end of a stall frame 6.

My base support comprises two angular bracket members 7. each having a depending member 8, adapted to have its outer face in line with the adjacent side of the curbing 5, and' a top portion 9 adapted to have its outer face in line with the top of the curbing 5. Each depending portion 8 is formed with an inwardlysunken or recessed portion 10, provided with a central aperture ll for receiving a securing bolt 12 which passes through the curbing 5 and retains the members 7 in position. The

recesses 10 are of sufficient depth to allow the head 13 and the locking nut 14 of the bolt 12 to be seated therein and thus per- Freiength of the bolt l2 as wi l be obvious.

.ornnng the curbing i2, the usual mold 115 bozlfids, not shown, are placed in proper spaced relation and the members 7 are placed within the mold and the concrete then poured therein. The irregularities of the inner faces of the members 7 formed b the T slots 15 and recesses l() prevent the members 7 from becoming loose after the concrete has hardenedpas the bolt 12 secures them within the recesses thus' formed in the curbing and the recesses preventing the lateral movement of the members T with respect thereto.

What I claim as my invention is:

1. A stall appliance comprising a concrete curbing, a bracket member having a struck in portion forming a recess in its outer face and a projection on its inner face, said ro- 'ection on the bracket member inner ace eing engageable in a recess in the adjacent curblng face, and means for securing the bracket member in position on the curbing, said means having its outer portion disposed in said recess.

L A stall appliance of the class described comprising two complementary angular bracket members each having a sunken remembers each having a side portionand a top portion, each side portion having an inwardly struck portion providing a sunken recess, a locking bolt" passed centrally through the sunken recesses to secure the bracket members bo a stall curb, the ends` of if' the bolt being entirely disposed Within the sunken recesses, the inwardly struck por-` tions positioning the bracket members on the' stall curb, and means for securing a stall fixture to the top Vportions of the bracket members.

4. A stall appliance of the class described comprising two complementary bracket members each haring a side portion and a top portion. euch side portion having an inwardly struck portion providing a sunken recess, a locking bolt passed centrally through the sunken recesses to secure the bracket members to a stall curb7 the ends of the bolt beine' entirely disposed Within the sunken recees, the inwardly struck portionspositioning the bracket members on the stall curb, alined T-shaped guide ways in the top portions of the bracket members, and fastening means carried by the guide Ways for securing a stall fixture to the top portions of the bracket members.

In testimony whereof I ax my signature.
